Did You Know Our Varsity Team Won Second?
Did You Know Our Varsity Team Won Second? They were playing for the 6A division championship. They played a good game. But they were not able to pull it out. The ironic thing is that they also played our crosstown rivals from Texas! They had a really great season and ended on a really high note.

Did You Know The CHSA Varsity is Playing for the Championship?
Did You Know The CHSA Varsity is Playing for the Championship? The boys' varsity team has worked hard all season long and come through to the National Tournament ready to play. They have been seeded in the 6A division. They have fought through some really tight games, and come out on top each time. Tonight, these boys are playing for the division 6A national championship title. Go Wolverines!
Did You Know We Won Fourth Place?
Did You Know We Won Fourth Place? My son's basketball team ended up winning fourth place at the national basketball tournament. They actually faced a hometown rival today for their shot at winning third place. We have beaten this team a couple of times before, so it was somewhat of a heartbreaking loss today for our boys. We lost by ten points, but both teams played hard and it proved to be a good game.

Did You Know We Play a Hometown Rival Next?
Did You Know We Play a Hometown Rival Next? Now our team is playing for 3rd place in the 5A division championships. Ironically, we will be playing a cross town rival of ours. We have played them and won, so tomorrow's game should be a real matchup. Ironic how we traveled all this way to play them in the championship!
Did You Know We Lost Today?
Did You Know We Lost Today? In the ongoing story of the basketball tournament, our team lost today. The team we played is from our home state and we have played them previously at a tournament earlier this year.
It was a saddening loss, as we beat them the last time we played them. It was a great game and a close game up to the half. After the half, it took a while for either team to score. The opposing team took a lead and then slowly pulled away.
They rebounded really well, which I believe was the biggest difference in the game.

Did You Know We Won Today?
Did You Know We Won Today? Today was the first game for division 5A championships. We had an early morning team meeting followed by a light practice. The boys had sandwiches for lunch, so they wouldn't be too sluggish, nor overly full.
They came out ready to play! They were intense and unintimidated! They scored more in the first half than in all of yesterday's game. Our low post was really into it and on fire today!
Maybe watching our varsity boys win a tight game to move into the 6A division helped light their fire!

Did You Know There is a Homeschool National Basketball Tournament?
Did You Know There is a Homeschool National Basketball Tournament? This season my son has played basketball with the CHSA basketball association. His team has done very well. They lost only two regular season games-both to the same team. My son's team is made up of players 14 and under. They have played other homeschooled teams as well as a number of private and public school teams. The team that beat them was made up of high schoolers ranging from 9-12 grades.
They played three tournaments, placing first, second and second in each. This week we are spending our days at the National Homeschool Basketball Tournament in Oklahoma City. There are 296 teams representing 27 states, including Alaska. It looks to be a big time!
